Galvanized Steel/PVC-Coated Multi-Gard® is a multi-celled raceway system designed for bridge applications and other areas requiring heavy duty protection. Steel Multi-Gard is manufactured in 10 ft. lengths with pre-installed, pre-lubricated, smoothwall PVC innerducts. Applications: Areas subject to physical damage – vandalism &
crush. Bridge crossings Innerducts: PVC 3-Way 1-1/2" or 4-Way 1-1/4"
Features:
• Pre-lubricated PVC innerducts for very low co-efficient of friction and lay straight for long pulls.
• Pre-installed reverse spin coupling allows coupling Multi-Gard together without turning pipe. • 3 set screws keep coupling from backing off, before and after installation. • Standard sweeps and terminators. • Patented flexible bend. • Conforms to NEC Article 300.22 and NFPA 90A for installation of communication cables inside
buildings. • All bends have “cut-through” resistant innerducts in bends to avoid rope cutting into adjacent
occupied innerduct. • Gasketed coupling body and PVC innerducts are designed to handle jetting equipment or line
blowing.
Technical Information:
• Joint Tensile: Approx. 500 lbs. (for reference only) • 10' length
Assembly Instructions:
1. Remove cap and loosen set screws on coupling. Spin back to allow for insertion. 2. Insert male into female end and spin coupling forward to bottom out. 3. Check for alignment of marked innerduct and marked hole. 4. Tighten set screws.

Flexible Steel Bends with Spin Coupling
Multi-Gard flexible bends use a patented design capable of a 4' minimum bend radius and use the same coupling design as straight sections and fixed bends. All bends are provided with engineered plastic innerducts to avoid rope cut-through into adjacent innerducts. NOTE: After positioning the bend in its application, it is necessary to cut off the excess innerduct material flush to pipe and deburr both the I.D. and O.D. of the innerduct to remove snags.
